NYBD: Mets going after Joe Beimel

Spoke to a league source that told me Joe Beimel is the Mets primary target in the lefty reliever market. They also indicated the team may be interested in bringing in multiple lefties due to the presence of strong left handed hitting in the NL East. Right now, its unclear how much Beimel would cost, which is certainly important due to the fact the Mets have been public in their desire to keep the payroll around $140 million dollars.
